Yeh would need to see the sim and the log
How big of a loss ER bug is?
Like 1-2%
i did that with 590 gear but yeah will save for wens ( oce player) so will see if anymore tuning
so if it does get nerfed we just doing double crit right
Yeh
easy hope it stays that way we got a good wep ready for raid lol
ah yeah okay awsome ty
Np
Worse with Resounding Clarity?
Worse compared to now
Whats the ‘patch’ embellishment, am I blind
It is crafted. In the Optional Reagents category. An item from World of Warcraft: The War Within. Always up to date with the latest patch (11.0.2).
you can wait, embellishments are rly low impact
!stats
Fuu :(
Moroes broke
But it’s only chat commands
Off topic commands and pins work
he is having lunch in karazhan
Yeah was planning to, thankfully we have some options
Was second guessing a little
on target dummies singular focus is putting me back incombat, but its also breaking stealth
is that normal
yea it doesnt break stealth if i only dot the marked target
Considering the PTR doesnt even address this at all, I again question if it is a bug to begin with in blizzard's mind
so on ST when we get darkest night up we want to push for 7 cp?
moroes is online, weird
what's the prio on using ER buffed combo points? do we just use ER points whenever we can?
yeah it's the only way to get DSM back on the target aside from vanish+ambush no?
Whenever you land on them yeh
Just like usual
Play normally and whatever happens happens
💜 ty
Np homie
It is. You got 30 seconds to reapply mark with a 7cp Envenom.
I keep, drying out on energy ST do I just need to be more wait a little longer on Envenoms? I'm trying to hit the it before the buff slips off
!pooling
make sure you don't drop bleeds too
maybe he was just clumsy
This^
weird ye
Yeh keeping it up, garrotte also?
let me check
garotte is a bleed so yes 😄 check out the blurb I linked above
Okay ty! sorry still pretty new to all of this
ill check in a moment
so in aoe, after dotting up, if you have darkest night up, and end up at full CP (fan of knives), do you muti before using envenom (to get spatter) despite being at full combo point?
Or just dont be bad and muti a target before using fan of knives so you wont notice overcapping?
No worries ask any questions you got, as for Envenom you will usually want to wait until its buff has 1s remainign before re-applying
/pooling
Thanks x
Have some one an idea how i can solve the Energy Problem? In Short fights No prob, but i think in Raid fight it can be a Problem. And yes i use the tea.
During CDs ; spam like hell. Outside CDs; pooling strategy
Ah okay.
if you don't have spatter up you kinda already made a mistake, getting it back up is giga important
if anythign spatter should've been up before you ever reached 7cp in like 99% of the situations (as specified 'after dotting things up', it should've done during that)
And how many Energy is enough to Spam again?
its probably because i have a tendency to use fan of knives instead of muti right after spreading ruptures/garrote/crimson, which i thought would be a small loss actually, but just old habit :<
well thanks!
yeah but definitely mutilate

Read About Pooling
TLDR:
Maintain max uptime on envenom
For Fatebound, sanguine blades is typically much better than Deathstalker. For this reason, if you can't maintain Envenom uptime anymore, you should build combo points, then reset your energy back to around 70% before maintaining again.
For Deathstalker, try to stay under 50% as much as possible while maxing out Envenom uptime. Single target builds play vicious venoms instead of sanguine blades as well.
The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and use energy more efficiently for Deathstalker marks/cooldowns. Staying under 50% leads to more envenom casts, which is more Darkest Night Procs. For Fatebound, heads flips contribute damage regardless of if you're flipping or not, so this pressure to keep spending is lessened.
I replaced moroes for a second
spatter essentially makes your envenom do 45% more damage for every extra target in range
kind of a big deal
ye thats why it felt a waste to not have up before consuming darkest night (atleast in aoe)
i just need to potato less, get it up quicker
HC too easy, rots my brain i guess
indeed but like mentioned you should never put yourself in a position where you reach 7cp to consume DN without already having applied spatter to begin with

All Specs are good and have niches and strengths that they play to. All three specs are looking viable with Assassination/Subtlety being preferred in raids. Mythic+ meta has not solidified yet but Assassination looked promising during beta.
Be aware that Simulations are a tool to be used to compare things like talents/gear/rotations, they are not the definite answer to what is meta or not meta. While outlaw is ahead in sims right now, especially dungeonslice, you have to take a step back and realize these are synthetic/generic situations that we use as a baseline. Dungeonslice has always been a great showing for outlaw simply due to the fight style matching well with the spec. This is not unusual or unheard of.
You can view logs of the raid when it comes out Here, or view the mythic+ run leaderboard Here.
Moroes lives again!

That sucks he’s been very rude to me lately
what was wrong with him
He went on strike after muting me twice in two days
Rightttt, so resetting is the way to go with energy. I just stay starve for my 5 mins test run hahahaa...
Stopping pressing buttons isn't exactly instinctive to most players 😂
Hahahahah
You also have to accept that your warlock friend will pass you in DPS during downtime.
it's why i went earthen, so i have a skill charge up during downtime. It's more fun than going to make a sandwich
But the mage? F him, beat the mages to the fckin ground

Yeh need to sort my plater rn. Attack 1 mob and have 3000 bleeds and poisons above its head
someone fat fingered in the sheet and broke the parsing
easy fix tho
Someone... Right

we fixed it, so all fine
I have a bit of player maintenance to do myself this weekend. Some minor UI fixes too
Hey guys, is the tierset still lackluster damagewise?
The tier set is one of the tier sets of all time, for sure
Its passive either way, if it underperforms it'll be easy to buff for blizz
why is my rogue so weak lol 😢 legit having trouble killing some world mobs lmao ending up with 10% hp after
Not seeing any buffs on it while remembering a +0,5% damage increase on it feels bad
I... Wut? What Ilvl you running around with and what mobs leave you at 10%?
rogue just sucks for solo content
What?
make sure you use evasion and crimson vial and cooldowns when necessary
552 ilvl, just doing the last part of the campaign..
anyone got the crest upgrades/drops spreadsheet
We obliterate stuff in solo content wth you talking about lol

The basic crafting spark is wrong however it goes to 606, the tooltip on the spark has been wrong for months
!up
works as well
I swear tww must have broken a record in terms of faulty or wrong tooltips
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
- Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
Indiscriminate Carnage Targetting and Swapping
TLDRMouseovers/Target swapping is optimal on 6 target, or 8+ targets, but not necessarily required
- The 2 Bleeds spread by carnage are smart and will prioritize mobs without the bleed. If everything already has bleeds it'll apply randomly
- You as the character are still casting the bleed against your target like normal, this is why people will sometimes use mouseover macros or swap targets
Swapping targets is situationally better, but can be ignored if you're having difficulties with it. Take 5 mob aoe as an example, your first garrote cast will apply to 3 targets (your target + 2 more). Regardless of if you swap or not, your second cast of garrote will hit your target, and then apply 2 more garrotes, prioritizing the mobs that do not have garrote. In very large aoe pulls (12 or more), a standard opener (garrote-garrote-rupture-rupture-garrote-garrote) will only apply 9 garrotes (3+2+2+2) and 5 ruptures (3+2) if you do not swap, losing you 3 garrotes and a rupture.
It is technically worse, but the situations in which you lose bleeds aren't very common; the lost ruptures/garrotes don't contribute much to your already flooded energy, you don't get additional scent of blood stacks, etc. The loss is purely the extra damage from those bleeds.
Another idea would be to make a list of commands maybe?
Like !help
Oh what is it?
Can we have a meeting about meeting up to discuss all that?
Is not working idk
Just deletes the message and sends nothing
the people coming in here asking the same questions over and over don't read pins or the guide
or really interact at all
True
so it's not like having a help command would do anything really
Hey asking what is bis pre season is very important to some people.
...
Apparently.
But yeah if they don't know there are commands no way they know there's a help command anyway
it'll go back to normal and we can get rid of some of the commands when the season starts
and things die down a little
hopefully
simply maintain a pastebin
probably
Hi everyone i have some issues only when i'm playing on my assa rogue in dungeons and specifically during big packs, i'm legit dropping from 200 frames to ~15/20 and that's unplaylable. Someone else has this issue or is it only me ? thank you

pre seaosn bis is
chop chop!
spend a shitton of gold on crafted gear for each slot
im not a moroes replacement anymore i gotta change this
farm yourself 2 good trinkets
sounds like addon lag from like weakaura or a nameplate addon that's going crazy
So good!! 
you can hover the little ? in the mini bar to see resource usage I think
and then run a profiler on the affected addon
weakauras has a built in tool
plater might not
not sure
but that's kinda first place to start
only using plater and with other classes like war/dk its fine my guess is that too many dots are showing on the nameplate above all the mobs but still
what's our best consumable combination atm? alchemical chaos flask + tempered potion?
yes
ye dunno
for trinkets:
- Any stat on use trinket is good for subtlety/assassiantion
- A passive trinket goes well in the 2nd slot, you can farm the egg one if you rly want
- There is a minecart and honey trinket, both seem to sim well alternatively
I ride bees
I'm even thinking of committing a sin and using the damn stupid bubbling wax next week to save on the ungodly costs of whetstones
!fatebound
Who the hell thought using null stones to make those was a good idea
What's the question?
it's only 25k for a blue mining pick he he
nullstone prices gonna drop once people max out ore KP (that's gonna take a bit though)
Considering adding sockets to jewelry item uses 2 null stones per, I doubt itll go down in price anytime soon
Just wanted to know if there's any difference in terms of % between deathstalker or fatebound so far.
also yay nature yay b ees
i have an idea how to handle the !help command, but currently not rly the time to change the bot in a big way
Yeah there will always be a difference and it'll fluctuate. We are what... 2-3% in favor of Dearhstalker in all content right now I think?
They are both perfectly viable so play whichever you prefer anyway
yeah think it's fine
not a big deal
Do we delay our 2nd deathmark till vanish is up?
How much does Attack Power actually improve our damage by? Wonder if it's worth picking up a couple for the raid
3k per stone 
What do you mean by 2nd death mark? We open up with death mark then we just roll it back with Darkest Night continuously
Oh wait NVM I dumb
:D
Since the guide says to cast vanish BEFORE (in caps) deathmark
If you delay that you delay KB you delay everything so not worth. Use vanish for it if you otherwise didn't have to use it previously
Otherwise just send it
In raids you will typically always have vanish used only for DM windows
So in an ideal rotation we allways vanish during deathmark after like 5 casts
You'd have to sim your char for numbers, but it's a bigger number than bubbling wax that I promise. And that other toxin oil thing
Which is sad thematically you'd think another weapon poison on top would be nice
So casting vanish before deathmark only happens if there is downtime when cds come up or if we have to hold them for a burst window
Yeah. M+ could disrupt that if you can benefit from vanishing a mechanic or something for example but that's the general rule
Vanish being used after dm on the opener is barely a few seconds delay so it's not much to align them after
I was more saying not worth waiting on it if you have like a big gap in timing due to vanishing for other reasons, somehow
With and without Ironclaw Stone duel wield
Yeah I apologize for the confusion I really thought the question was about actual gaps in timings;
Run your opener, vanish to refresh the initial garotte, the align both after that
Do you guys know where i can find some plater nameplates for rogue ? that are only tracking important dots ? tyty
!wa
Yeah now check with bubbling wax 😂
!wa
bot seems to be slow atm
i thought u were baiting me ahah
here you have
check that
thank you
Bubbling wax isn’t in sims
But it’s about half the value
Stones are roughly 2%
Wax is roughly 1%
Hehe just thought it'd be fun to see the number difference. Still pretty minor overall
I really wish deep toxins was better, thematic would be on point
Mana oil seems surprisingly close to stones
well i guess i will not play rogue this xpac, everytime i press FoK or CS i'm legit dropping 100+ frames even on target dummies 😢
speaking of buffs, are we definitely out of PI jail yet?
so how is rogue these days?
This happens with all addons disabled?
We good, could use some bugfixes and some help here and there but we are good
I hope they hotfix these ER problems
assa rogue is still the best for pve?
I hope they would even start by acknowledging that they ARE problems form their perspective
i have not tried disabling all add ons since i have no issue with my war, but i'll give it a try
There !best @abstract needle read the above link
Well i have no drops with my addons disabled 🙂
Well there you go, now we know for sure its one of your addons. Tryin re-enabling them one at a time see which one might cause the issue. Typically will be UI related
that's gonna be fun ahah
Moroes deadge again
yeah but like focus on specific possible ones first; try loading with ONLY plater for example
Could I ask the difference in DPS between Fatebound and Deathstalker? Would it be a huge DPS difference if I chose Fatebound instead?
2-3% ish but don't quote me on that, close enough that if you play one better than the other than thats the best one
Thanks so much! Just getting back to WoW and rogue since early Legion days so it just seems like Fatebound is a bit more passive and easier
brb skillmaxing fatebound
gonna hit the bank for some coins
Do you even “play” fatebound?
Well you do have to poop those coins out somehow
My WA tracks the coins…. And I go “that’s nice”.
You track coins?
if I had to play fatebound I'D 100% get somethign to track lifetime flips
only way I could feel anything while playing it
Wait do we have to track coins...?
and "feel" in this case is a bit too strong of a term
Nah
now that would be interesting - lifetime flips, longest chain, average chain length
nah we are memeing about tracking them for funsies
Oh phew I thought it's like Outlaw where you need to change rotation based on the buff haha
Don’t get me wrong - I like that there is a passive option. And I play FB a lot. But at no point do I change any of my behaviour based on the coin information I have.
You mean like RTB?
shhhhh you gonna trigger the yellow names
I am triggered

Am i the only one having energy issue in long solo fights ?
You murdered it again bud
Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.
No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target
I didn't do shit
well damn someone is going around murdering moroes every time he gets up
and it can't be me last time I was doing that was in like... 20-something long past
yek why is a tank trinket high up on my droptimizer list atm
well designed game
I'm curious now, running raid droptomizer
Whispxr assassinates the moroes botD:
He denied involvement in this one, so unless you want to involve the lawyers as well

i forgot to ask are we trying to tea to be above 150 in burst or does it not matter at all just need energy to click buttons
whenever you can press tea during shiv and not overcap your energy as a result

Do we want Crit/mastery then? I see some going vers mastery
vers mastery sounds like pvp
i'll stick with crit mast then 🙂
Sim your char, I mean right now in pre-season doesnt matter much but once in-season don't stick to just one stat combo blindly
we like all stats to a degree, vers a bit less is all
will do thank you 🙂
which weapon ench we use preraid?
radiant power
I mean I wouldnt even actively stack 2 stats rn

no
everything consumable sucks this expansion
it's more like a faint glimmer of power
iron whetstones are so expensive
yet it costs an arm and a leg for all of it
what would be a good alternative?>
thanks
I can only use the feast every time for the food buff
I hate sushi, so its no alternative

what was that from again? cobra kai or something?
you can use this
The guide writer should do better smh my head
i never saw movie but i know meme as im from car detailing community
I made 400 Hearty Beledar's Bounty
Hey ! Crimson tempest has a pandemic timer ?
Haha
I am asking because of the note at the end
most non-major cd things
Thx !
if that makes sense
only in really rare instances does it not pandemic
oh we have to farm bubbling wax? what the.. would oil of deep toxins work as an alternative?
I mean.... I guess sure yeah
or algari mana oil
just for week 1 and 2
whetstones are 7k+ gold in KR servers
like what
you can just farm like 40 bubbling wax in like 5 minutes
idk why it's a big deal
but sure
oh really?
i don’t even know what the hell a bubbling wax is man
sorry thought it was gonna take a long time
just run around the kobold area and pickpocket idk
who are you people
it's not that bad

gotcha
I remember you...
In the mountains
welcome to stormrage
When should we craft something ? 😄
these are commodities and are region wide
it's not stromrage
it's just
NA
true, and fair enough, welcome to hell then
I would personally wait for mythic week
so next week ?
In 2 weeks
next week is Normal / Heroic only
Crafting a dagger now isn't really that bad of a. Option as well
With or without emb
we've known this for... quite a while
Oh you mean raid
hmm
all the weapon things are very low impact
like, you can buy R1 the crit/haste mana oil for 2silver and its almost 0 difference to a whetstone
This will probably be the chilliest start of a expansion I've ever experienced
Hey, any of you know what the ID of Bone spike to remove it from platter buff ? 328547 and 324074 doesn't seem to work
try 455352
that's the talent id
wouldn't really help much to hide a talent from a nameplate
:P
shows as spell id for me
how do you show the spellid on icon ?
ah gotcha
idtip
okok . ty !
What u guys thinking about Cursed critical strike ench ? should we use this one ?
I personally wont be using any cursed at all. Its not like we have a pure dumpster stat, and the net stat gain from cursed is in the negative compared to the regular ones
unless something comes up where cursed are somehow meta, yeah I wont bother.
got my gold saving supplies ready
does someone have the sim spreadsheet from fuu with the bis gear?
Hello! Is it fine to macro envenom with coldblood if you're playing fatebound?
its fine, you can theoretically gain by not doing it to avoid some wonky interaction with the coin but its not really worth unless you really want to min-max
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
thank you 🙂
wait does this means we're the "worst" spec dmg wise ?

means that people are playing excell world of warcraft, prediciting future and using gypsies powers to try to make some order of absolute caos that everything is rn.
tl:dr, nothing.
Lowkey it doesn't matter if I spend spark now does it
"bro my bis list told me the best belt is that one, it made all the difference"
-Some rando, probably
I can always recraft, I have maxed out lw
I mean you can re craft assuming it's the same slot needed
So, you know, at your own risk
I think If you are only heroic raiding long term if won't matter
Read About Pooling
TLDR:Maintain max uptime on envenom
- For Fatebound, sanguine blades is typically much better than Deathstalker. For this reason, if you can't maintain Envenom uptime anymore, you should build combo points, then reset your energy back to around 70% before maintaining again.
- For Deathstalker, try to stay under 50% as much as possible while maxing out Envenom uptime. Single target builds play vicious venoms instead of sanguine blades as well.
The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and use energy more efficiently for Deathstalker marks/cooldowns. Staying under 50% leads to more envenom casts, which is more Darkest Night Procs. For Fatebound, heads flips contribute damage regardless of if you're flipping or not, so this pressure to keep spending is lessened.
All the advice the vast majority will tell you is to wait for spark and be patient. You do what you want with that info.
And yeah if you don't do any progression content none of this matters to begin with
I do mythic raiding
which mousover macro u guys use for rupture?
#showtooltip
/cast [target=mouseover] abilityname
I don't use one myself for this but that's the typical mouseover
I thought the same
But I'm chilling, just waiting
Who knows maybe they shadow mega buff the raid crafted dagger
I got two dawn thread linings sitting in my bank just in case, and we'll see what happens
I kinda wish the pocket grenades would be amazing cause pocket grenades are cool 😎
Can you explain this sentence so I don't feel like I failed something on my lw?
I only have the pathing to boots and belt maxed
Got my stuff looking like this
And three blue tools with ingenuity enchant/flasks
We points wise we look the same
But I have 30-30-20(boots)-20(belt) and now making way to wrists
I should get blue tools as well but no blue thingy
I went hard on professions
Leveled blacksmithing and leatherworking on an alt just to craft myself tools
Do you only shiv at the last 8 secs of kingsbane when you only have 1 stack of shiv?
You probably shouldn't have only 1 stack of shiv
2 silver where
its 90g on the ah

Better than 5k gold xd
yes
yeah but you might aswell just use buzzing runes at that point 
most m+ builds only have 1 stack of shiv
Thanks!
You should have 2 shivs for kb dm tho
not possible if you're running 1 charge

Does anybody have a weak aura to track Deathstalkers Mark?
yeah there is one i asked people to pin but i guess thats not up to me

Clap there is a KB one i would suggest having too
really good for me as a beginner
TWW version of Notter's KB tracker Part of my rogue pack: https://wago.io/Hy9eKKV47 A tool made for practicing a
For the shiv timer?
ye
Yeah same
Yeah ive got the KB one, made life a dream in DF.
I feel like those KB trackers just add so much noise now that it's literally just shiv
Does anyone know how to sim with bubbling wax instead of whetstone?
i acidentaly posted my details cause i was about to say, turns out for me that im perfoming better with DS then FB, i guess it has to do with the fact that i dotn worry with sanguine blade as much
Yeah I use a TMW to just show both timers going,I know when to shiv
it feels so good for a beginner having a tracker like that, but for experienced players yeah, its bloat.
You don't, wax isn't in the sims
i would appreciante if you guys dummy tested and gave me some feedback
sadly a details breakdown is useless for that
i think cause im bad and not using SB correctly
To be clear you should never worry about Sanguine blade at all
yeah but my FB does
sure
that one you just ignore mostly
sanguine is just free damage during cooldowns and sometimes when you happen to reset your envenom uptime or run around for a boss or something
yesterday me and my guildies we made some tests for performance, and i did place top bracket, but i want to be top top bracket and im testing stuff out, its either DS or SUB
I mean you won't be top top bracket if your guildies are anywhere near average at the game
good morning fellow scoundrels and sneaks
Is there a big difference between sanguin and vicious venom?
vicious is 1% better generally
I thought outlaw was doing good in term of sim dps even if outlaw profile sucks

with some downtime you'll end up being about the same as the other two specs
it ain't that big
I'm not sure why all the rogue specs are tuned so low =0
Its cause mages complained they were not main characters enough
tuning isn't really a precise thing
If they could just fix some bugs and I'm sure we'll gain a bit of dps at least
not really
No? OK. 
tfw we have 2 rogues in our raid team
we screwed 😦
Its more qol than buffs
one of us gonna get screwed
what frking raidteam do you guys have where people get booted on a whim for playing a class/spec that is somewhat average/bellow average
we are done for
like srsly
im just doomin
Lmao
Whispyrs let's talk you and me
espacialy when you want every single class 1x anyway
jokin round
like, doesnt matter how shit tuning is, they want a rogue so you have your spot
There’s barely any rogues to start with
if you're finding out right now that rogue single target being average or slightly below average, you're too much of a shitter for it to matter
just is how it is
Especially with the creeping DMG buff we are getting this season, teams can be flexible
double envenom buff
I wanna talk about this
Idk who’s rerolling off rogue when they’re average and cares enough to type here
wait
does that mean with 2 assa rogue
QUADRUPLE ENVENOM BUFF????

assuming ER gets fixed isnt that kind of a big deal?

My guild is a bunch of grey parses, so I just gotta rock up and swing my weapons to look amazing
aight I'm just gonna like
Who gonna tell em we don't get PI no more

i mean
80% of this channels users in the last month are people that saw "high dungeon overall dmg" and thought that assa is this giga OP broken spec everywhere

and now they slowly see the reality creeping in lol
ye ofc it is
but when m+ start
and bosses dont die in 30seconds
and the ST dmg drop actually gets noticable
oh boy
will be fun times
and ofc a endless barrage of "DAE NO ENERGY????"

We went from around 127k people on the server to 130k during pre-expansion to now.
Let's see the numbers once people understand what's up.
Such is life, we still have our work to do, stabbing to stab and 3.6% to bring to raids
Lmao
wise words from my RL

Such wisdom
i play with damage numbers off and just focus on nailing my rotation every time and then i look at my damage numbers later and i say yep ok
hello based?
haha the game feels so much less stressful that way, at least for me
I quit my arcane mage I leveled first to play rogue because I was having more fun playing this and outlaw
I play with details only showing the top person, it's never me, so the class I am playing is broken
I mean even with meters up there's usually a higher priority on screen for your eyes than starring at it
i tried outlaw the other night!! so fun
the real red pill is realizing that being a good raider means playing mechanics consistently
I think people forget that if you aren't hard hard pushing rank...fun still matters lol
mechanics... isn't that a healer thing
thats why you put your damage meter in the center 🧠
low iq: just play the boss
midwit: OK BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE SIMS AND MAXIMUM TIER LIST ARCANE IS CLEARLY THE BEST SPEC
high iq: just play the boss
i mean, yeha
and a good RL sees that and cares about that more then everything else
like, why "force" somebody to play something that is "Better" when they play good and are never the reason why you struggle with a fight
if a spec is really REALLY bad, most people tend to not play it by themself and swap until its fixed
good player on a bad spec is better than a bad player on a good spec, I hear ya
i mean, also gotta remember
"bad spec" in wow is a gigantic overreaction
Fire mage being the exception atm.
the differences are most of the time really not big lol
Yea for sure
It is actually bad spec
fire mages lol that discord channel must be abandoned
99% of people arent even that good at their own class, let alone have the capability to reroll
in my time being an officer, legit only 1 or 2 people managed to successfully reroll
across 3 tiers
thats true
I'd reroll for you ❤️
please no 😭
That's wild to me...when I used to play in a US 100 guild I was a flex player and rerolled every tier
Ich habe mal eine Frage wegen Stats auf was muss ich so achten welche sollte ich in den Focus nehmen
Aside, being mid DPS is great, we are out of PI hell!!!!
This game isn't hard enough to not be able to reroll
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
- Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
also this is an english server
crit mastery
are u sure?
Yea I reroll a bit mainly because I want to change things up each season
positive yes
Whisper, should I play shadowed or what
ist n englischer server, und es gibt ned wirklich n stat focus im moderenen WoW weil mainstat in denn meisten fällen gewinnt, du kannst wirklich nur vergleichen wenn du 2items auf dem gleichen ilvl hast, und das ist dann mit simmen, was du immer machen solltest
Showder
says so at the top of the rules
Shadower fuck auto correct
wrong actually
in maple?
Yeah man
the upcomming assa changes are like whatever right?
I'm burning my xenon next, but dual blade was going to be the move
they're compressing the channeled skills on dual blade
so that's hype
twist the knife is really interesting, the rest is kinda whatever yeah
Tea change is really stupid
TTK change is interesting
SnD change is QoL, SnD barely existed anyway so its kinda w/e
everything else is mostly re-naming stuff
interesting in a good way?
Tea change I don't know anyone that is for it
yes in a good way
interesting in a good way maybe but could just end up being nothing
you werent lying its actually easy as fuck to get weeks worth of bubbling wax 
hi
i like sub shadowdust gameplay. 
which spec should we choose on alchemy so we could have longer flask duration anyone knows?
I know one person that is for it now.
RIP, but really dust had to go, no time to shed tears, what's done is done.
it was kinde coo...and this nerf "buffs" outlaw..
Say what now?
the changes to outlaw were nice
The flask one 😊
Anywhere we can find some sims with different hero talents, talents etc based on the new raid gear?
depends what info you're hoping to get from that
Just curious about the general direction
fatebound and deathstalker are pretty much equal
fatebound has a bit more burst
deathstalker has the better mobility/defensive/funnel
Is that also true with the reprimand bug? So speccing into lethality etc, per your video
I guess that is still not fixed
there would be a massive pin when it gets fixed
I kinda like deathmark, but seems annoying in M+ tbh
it's arguably one of the biggest bugs we've had in like the last 5 years
Well maybe it will be ok when the mobs don't vanish in 4 secs
what are the chances ER DN interaction is intended to add friction to the rotation?
It also doesn't seem that complicated to fix it, but maybe I just don't know enough about coding
Non zero, that's all we can really say. PTR isn't addressing it, they haven't acknowledged it
0
don't care what sellia says
anyone who thinks this is intended is dented beyond helping
I mean I wasnt trying to say it was likely at all
I just don't understand why it's not getting fixed. They are patching ret, warlock 24/7
I damn well hope it's a bug
archon is better
yeh but non-zero is more than zero

That is a fact, that is in fact, truth
They have fixed a bunch of our bugs in the past, but it is what it is
Maybe soon-ish
I mean it isn't intended though
It's the most annoying ass bug that straight up kills a talent
You got the math to back that up?
Definitely not, it was a reply to Lazyshadow
But even if it gets fixed it won't really help us being bellow avarage.
In what content?
Uhm. Sure. Ok!
Have you seen mythic+ numbers
Have you seen a mythic+?
I mean if it's like a 1% increase. It won't really do that much.
Sorry I refer to all dungeons as mythic+
but yeah
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: https://github.com/SimCMinMax/WoW-BugTracker/labels/Rogue
Assa is doing fine in dungeon content
our ST is pretty lackluster no?
Yes we are
yeh that's why it's insane
this stuff worth it ?
no
sorry not the right time to be half meming whispyr
But you literally said that we're gonna blast
And now you're saying it's bad
I apologize
which one is it, chief
Current dungeons sure, but M+ we ain't looking to blast these as hard
Oh okay
I forgot it changes entirely
was memeing Im sorry
Im high on copium
outlaw still got weird numbers
I think sin is pretty damn good in m+ o.o
is it and will be
If they decide to buff our tier set from dogwater to acceptable tier, then it's gonna be even better
hoping for assa to have a good spot in raid
rupture
based
buff rupture, buff poisons
nerf spatter aura buff us

yeah pretty much
@limber lion 
just nerf everyone else lol
I just want tons of energy so I can feel like an adhd bunny.
play outlaw
Don't you already have that
I think Rogue is not the spec for you if you wanna feel that
But the outlaw channel scares me.
1s gcd is 1s gcd
youre playing a gcd capped class 😦

Fury warriors are that way --> out
hard agree
wish they buffed sanguine
lowkey hate how much damage comes from envenom
Maybe this was asked before, but cant find...
on Deathstalker, Whispyr says to keep under 50 energy for Envenom
But if the damn Thistle Tea activates on its own, doesn't that contradict the effect...
I know he said 50 flat energy and 50% is 50%... idk, math is not my forte.
rupture on sub feels more impactful than on assa 
Wait the first line says that Whispyr said 50% energy, last line says it was 50 flat
Which one is it
yea mb
you only keep under 50% if you play sanguine blades which you dont in ST
mhm, okii... man I just hope they remove that damn change with TT. zero sense.
You can play the spec without energy numbers if you have a fancy bar with colors
not yet ofc
Yeah not yet, but will do
yeah
you just..... don't make it auto proc
xD
it's still a button
idk the tea change is just easier for people who don't want to use the button, they're still getting a majority of the value
and everyone who is min-maxing will..... do the same thing they did before?
Why don't the Rogue Dev team just reach out to Whispyr and ask for directions... I mean.
Good for Whispyr, good for Devs, good for everyone.
I don't get why people hate it so fucking much
You say that...
I would've done the same thing lmao
for people who give a shit, it changes nothing
for people who don't give a shit, it's free tea
I think it's pretty dank
i like SnD change more
I mean it's just whatever
SnD is huge yeah, I love it.
tea is legit a non-issue
Could be worse, we could be going back to pressing mfd into crimson tempest on single target again
but everyone acts like blizzard just shot their favorite talent
another bug fix roll and no ER changes 
Best timeline
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i think it is a stupid change
BUT people gotta remember that you will still have a charge for kingsbane/ kingnsbane+DM anyway
cus you literally get 1charge back everytime with them
yeh I mean you're going to have your charge for every kb window
and shiv is used with KB 
Yes but you use charges between kb as well
you're still getting like the vast majority of the value of the tea even if it auto procs
it's really not that big of a deal
spammer
Tryan hit a filter?
no, i saw a message go away
so the cd rotation is like: Deathmark - Shiv - Kingsbane - Tea. right?
Whenever I see tc-research pop up, that's when you spot a spammer
Everything else but tea, yeah
Sure you can do that in the opener with 3 charges
but after that you use tea for energy
with shiv
So on 2 min window you wouldn't do that, unless you get maximum energy gain from it
hmm
it means right after or before? don't really understand
so is assassin go to spec when raids go live ?
you can go any tbh
You press Shiv, then you press tea
right. thx
yea but is there any data or anything which is strongest raid dps?
only in m+ tbh, in raids you just play double shiv
and in m+ energy is outside of boss fights not a thing anyway
Strongest raid dps is the one you do the most damage on 
okay so what I heard was BS. Read somewhere Assassin is strongest spec right now
🤣🤣🤣
Does the sim take in consideration the Echoing reprimend bug with DS mark?
for raids
Definitely not
but like, yeha there is just this 1 thing people need to remember a bit in general
the main value of tea is "you have energy and can use more abilitys", that is the main gain
the entire "use it with something else" is allready some bigtime minor minmax shit
Yes
need to pull up some numbers wednesday hc so I get picked for mythic roster in my new guild.
Yes means that in the sim it works liek it should or that even in the sim it's bugged?
Assa and Sub in theory do same ST dmg, outlaw is up to debate
Yo can anyone link a quick sim
tf they dont have a mythic roster yet
I think he means they are testing trials in heroic
yea that.
Just go sub and tell them look at boss damagw
reroll arcane mage and get in the roster easy pzy
or Warrior if you are bad at the game
I am already sub so gonna stay it if there is no true info which one is best spec for raiding
there is one other rogue
but yea thank you guys. Gonna stay sub since that is which I know best for now.
you mean the list max's chat cooked up?
which is meme content?
lol rumored
yeah very accurate
ye 
twitch chat knows best
the Atrophic poison must be good i assume
And said atrophic is way more than enough to have a spot
specially for prog
So idk what you looked at but
yes its a raid buff added intentionally to make rogue be played
that is literally the reason it was added
every class has one
we'll see how logs turn out in the HC week
I can tell you how
aren't you able to not take Hunters atm if you don't want to?
yes, you want every raid buff 1x
cus thats a good chunk of value lol
I know I was stating it for the lad that was talking about rumored roster for wf 
not a fan of raid buffs

Why wouldnt u want a hunter? Probably the best ST dps, turtle for mechanics etc etc
makes all the pug groups non-optimal
Same but also idk how to fix, no raid buffs leads to degen things too
Yeah
i mean they have no unique raid buff
Otherwise would be sitting at 14 arcane mages, 2 tanks and 2 healers
They do…
Ya maybe you mix some enhance in now that they sim the same 
enhance sims are dumb
Just need a DH and then u can stack 14 arc mages🤣🤣🤣
the mark?
remember Mid BfA with warlock/shadowpriests?
🙂
The point was that without raid buffs that would happen
i like the evoker buff for that reason tbh
its good, but no broken shit like brand/arcane int
anyone know how to sim racials on raidbots?
how do you sim racials on raidbots? 😄
the unique raid buffs is both good and bad for me
Change rhe race input to the race u want to sim
You need to do an advanced sim with your profile, followed by a big string of copied race profiles
but it promotes diversity in the raid and more spots so it's w/e
Read the first top lines it says race: Orc blabla
Sec
which spec is better in raid this season ?
Arcane mage
Boomkin
rogue's spec
how are we supposed to know
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Enjoy
outlaw 
@real pike there's racial sims in this spreadsheet already
for real, outlaw might not be it
Nobody is gonna play outlaw🤣
hmm
i'm curious to see how much the sim is off
damnnn legend thank you sir
npnp
i just checked raidbot sims for outlaw it was crazy🤣
what does that mean
!spreadsheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Outlaw simbait
^this
Outlaw simmed like aloooot in amisrasil, but no one played it
huh I heard mechagnome was giving like 10-40k dps increase but the spreadsheet is showing it as far more normal
Bcuz the raid design was heavily favoured towards sub, this raid tier doesn't look like it is.
Hmmm, we will see
its gonna be the most played spec again
cus it almost always is lol
outlaw is the fury warrior of rogue
it's someone in Alex's guild tbf, I assume compared to their current race but I'm not sure which that is
Like Mechagnome does 20k more dps than a Zandalari troll
not very helpful
but it's the same as Dark Iron
Always have to keep in mind what they're comparing to
But yeah even 20k is super whatever
and that 10-20k is not really that much with our current numbers lol
when you're doing 3m+ dps
I compared my sims to a troll, was 20k dps increase as well. But 20k is like almost nothing




simply
